Question: Which Pokemon deserve immortality in the Realm of Ant Taxonomy?

Answer: Vote here

Backstory: I discovered 6 new ant species during field research in Fiji [IRL] and decided to name them after Pokemon. Already named ant species from New Guinea after Game of Thrones dragons: Pheidole drogon and Pheidole viserion, so homie aint playin. A thing about species names: they last forever. Whatever these ants are named will be remembered far after the last vestige of Pokemon lore has been forgotten. Not saying they will be household names. Far from it. But there will be a few myrmecologists like me 200 years from now that know these names.

Notes

¹ Pretty sure this is the world's 1st Internet contest to name a new species IRL.

² Vote Tapu Bulu! He's the only guardian deity of the Alola islands still in the running for top 5. Would be fitting patronym for an ant from the Fijian islands.

³ 17k votes tallied so far. Yes, redditors over at r/pokemongo found a way to run Anty McAntface as a dark horse write-candidate and now it's vying for 2nd place [sigh]. I trust such antics are beneath r/pokemon.
